Referring now to Fig. 2, data flow diagram has illustrated the various embodiment that embed the brake booster leak detection system in the control module 26.Embodiment according to various brake booster leak detection systems disclosed by the invention can also comprise the many submodules that embed in the control module 26.Be understandable that shown subsystem can be merged and/or further be divided to carry out similar Leak Detection in vacuum-assisted brake servo unit 38.Can other control module detected, in vehicle 10 (as shown in Figure 1) be received and/or be determined from the input of vehicle 10 (as shown in Figure 1) by other submodule in the control module 26 to described system.In various embodiments, the control module 26 of Fig. 2 comprises driving engine evaluation module 51, pressure evaluation module 52 and error reporting module 54.
When being in when cutting out driving engine evaluation module 51 monitoring driving engine evaluate parameters 56, driving engine 12 determines.When driving engine 12 is in when cutting out, driving engine evaluation module 51 is provided with diagnosis and allows mark 58 to be TRUE.Otherwise diagnosis allows mark 58 still to be set to FALSE.Describe though embodiment disclosed herein relates generally to " when driving engine 12 is in when cutting out ", this embodiment also can be used to " when driving engine 12 is in when connecting ".When diagnosis allows mark 58 to be TRUE, pressure evaluation module 52 assessment pressure signals 42,45 and 46. Pressure signal 42,45 and 46 can filter by for example LPF 59.
Pressure evaluation module 52 brake monitoring booster vacuums 42 and 46 1 periods schedule times of brake-pipe pressure.At this schedule time internal pressure evaluation module 52 brake booster vacuum and driving engine vacuum are compared.Pressure evaluation module 52 continues to monitor brake booster vacuum 42 and brake-pipe pressure 46 is lower than the driving engine vacuum up to brake booster vacuum, and pressure evaluation module 52 resets value and restarts appraisal procedure in this case.
Pressure evaluation module 52 determines that vacuum changes (Δ) in the brake servo unit.The brake booster vacuum rate of decay 60 changes according to brake booster vacuum and the schedule time is determined.The variation of brake-pipe pressure 62 also is determined.The brake boost vacuum rate of decay 60 can be filtered by statistical filtering, and for example exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) (EWMA) filtering 61.The change of the brake booster vacuum rate of decay 60 and brake-pipe pressure 62 is provided for error reporting module 54.
The change of the error reporting module 54 assessment brake booster vacuum rates of decay 60 and brake-pipe pressure 62 determines whether to exist leaks.If the change of brake booster vacuum pressure attenuation speed 60 and/or brake-pipe pressure 62 indication vacuum leak or vacuum leak are greater than predeterminated level, report condition 64 is set to indicate exist and leaks, describes the information of leaking and/or detect failure.Otherwise, if the change of brake booster vacuum pressure attenuation speed 60 and/or brake-pipe pressure 62 indication is not leaked or is leaked in normal operating range, report condition 64 be set to indication do not have leakages, in normal operating range and/or detection pass through.In various embodiments, error reporting module 54 uses statistical filtering such as EWMA61 to filter brake booster vacuum pressure attenuation speed 60.The result that error reporting module 54 is assessed statistical filtering then determines whether to exist leakage.
Referring now to Fig. 3, flowchart text the brake booster leak method of inspection that each side can the control module 26 by Fig. 2 be carried out according to the present invention.Describe though following step relates generally to the embodiment of Fig. 1 and 2, these steps also can be modified to be applicable to other embodiment.Be understandable that the execution sequence of brake booster leak method of inspection step can change under the spirit that does not change described method.Described method can periodically be carried out in the control module operational process or come predetermined running according to certain event.Described method begins in step 100.In step 108, control determines whether about one or more vacuum transducer or the brake piping sensor error of existing in sensor 40,44 and 45.When the vacuum transducer mistake existed, control turned back to the step 100 of beginning, is directly to step 138, and/or end step 110.When the vacuum transducer mistake did not exist, control proceeded to step 112.
In step 112, the driving engine evaluate parameter can be monitored and assessment, and for example operational mode can be monitored.When driving engine 12 is in braking during stop mode, control proceeds to step 116, otherwise control turns back to beginning step 100, between proceed to step 138, and/or end step 110.
When test timer do not have expired and also step 124-128 in any condition do not satisfy at present that the step 116-130 of face repeats.In step 116, determine the variation of brake servo unit pressure.Initial brake booster vacuum pressure BBP 0Can obtained (step 116A) and connect with time=0, for example in the first time of step 116-130 cyclic process.Determine current brake booster vacuum pressure BBP C(step 116B).Initial and current brake booster vacuum pressure can be filtered, and for example abates the noise by LPF.From current brake booster vacuum pressure BBP CIn deduct initial brake booster vacuum pressure BBP 0Determine the change Δ BBP of brake booster vacuum pressure.
In step 118, determine the change of brake-pipe pressure.Initial brake-pipe pressure BLP 0Can obtained (step 118A) and connect with time=0, for example in the first time of step 116-130 cyclic process.Determine current brake-pipe pressure BLP C(step 118B).Initial and current brake-pipe pressure can be filtered, and for example eliminates noise by LPF.From current brake-pipe pressure BLP CIn deduct initial brake-pipe pressure BLP 0Determine the change Δ BLP of brake-pipe pressure.
In step 122, the refresh test timer.For example test timer can be increased by one.
In step 124, control determines whether current brake-pipe pressure BLP CGreater than brake piping threshold value T BLAs current brake-pipe pressure BLP CGreater than brake piping threshold value T BLThe time, control can be directly to step 138, otherwise control proceeds to step 126.For example, when the vehicle driver taked emergency braking, brake-pipe pressure was elevated to a high level.Control selects not carry out the brake booster leak detection when emergency braking.This can stop inaccurate Leak Detection to be measured.Usually when brake-pipe pressure not too high, and stablize glancing impact, unless have vacuum leak otherwise brake booster vacuum remains on a high level.
In step 126, control determines whether the threshold value T of the changes delta BLP of brake-pipe pressure greater than the variation of brake-pipe pressure Δ BLPAs the changes delta BLP of described brake-pipe pressure threshold value T greater than the variation of brake-pipe pressure Δ BLPThe time, control can be directly to step 138, otherwise control proceeds to step 128.The variation of bigger brake-pipe pressure can be indicated unsettled braking in the brake system.As an example, when braking " shake ", will there be significant the variation in brake-pipe pressure.Therefore brake booster vacuum is depleted.Thereby, detecting for preventing wrong brake booster leak, control can proceed to the bigger variation of step 138 and/or indication brake-pipe pressure.
In step 128, control determines whether current brake booster vacuum pressure BBP CLess than the engine charge vacuum pressure.The engine charge vacuum pressure can be determined according to manifold absolute pressure signal 43 and barometric pressure signal in step 129.As current brake booster vacuum pressure BBP CDuring less than the engine charge vacuum pressure, control can be directly to step 138, otherwise proceeds to step 130.When brake booster vacuum during less than the driving engine vacuum, check valve 21 is opened, thereby the stress level of vacuum system changes.Thereby do not carry out Leak Detection.
In step 130, control determines whether that test timer is expired.When test timer, control and proceed to step 132, otherwise step 116 is returned in control during the cycle greater than presumptive test.
In step 132, the brake booster vacuum rate of decay is determined in control.The brake booster vacuum rate of decay equals the cycle of the changes delta BBP of brake booster vacuum pressure divided by the schedule time or test timer.
In step 134, control is filtered the brake booster vacuum rate of decay by EWMA filtering 61.This provides the reliable diagnosis result.When force aid system for braking does not leak or leak very hour, the result after EWMA filtering 61 is filtered is near equaling 0.When having leakage, the result after EWMA filtering 61 is filtered increases and depends on the size of leakage.
In step 136, control determines whether to exist and leaks.When leakage existed, control was according to the definite size of leaking of the known parameters of the brake booster vacuum rate of decay and force aid system for braking, and for example scantling, member layout, brake servo unit dispose, normal engine turns round pressure etc.Leakage size is directly relevant with the brake servo unit rate of decay.
Leakage size can be detected between lower and high leakage threshold value, monitoring, assessment and report, and described low and high leakage threshold value changes according to concrete application and system.As an example, leakage size can be about 0.013 "-0.065 " between detected.Less than 0.013 " leakage can be considered to good/normal operational system.Greater than 0.065 " leakage can cause the quick interruption of auto stop mode.This bigger leakage can be passed through control module 26 detected and reports, and/or can the detected and report by another brake servo unit monitoring system.
In step 137, the result of control report brake booster vacuum pressure test.Usually, if the result of statistical filtering is zero or is lower than predetermined threshold value that leaking does not have to take place and test and pass through.If the result of statistical filtering greater than predetermined threshold value, takes place to leak and test crash.
Be understandable that,, carry out extra step with other system of failure notification and user in case report condition is set to test crash.In various embodiments, according to report condition diagnostic code is set.Described diagnostic code can be retrieved by service tools or be sent to far-end by telecommunication system.In various other embodiment, indicator lamp is lighted according to report condition.In various other embodiment, produce audible ringing signal according to report condition.
In step 138, the change of the brake booster vacuum pressure that resets, the change and the test timer of brake-pipe pressure.The brake booster vacuum rate of decay also is reset.
Be understandable that, above in question all comparisons can be used to various form according to value as a comparison.For example, in each embodiment comparison " greater than " can be used as " more than or equal to ".Similarly, in each embodiment comparison " less than " can be used as " smaller or equal to ".
In the vehicle operating process, can carry out said method.In other words, carry out described method when the vehicle ' process or when being in on-state.The power operation of vehicle by obtaining from battery 24 and/or motor 22.The brake monitoring booster vacuum rate of decay provides leak detection technology accurately.Described method does not rely on initial brake booster vacuum pressure, and is based on the change of brake booster vacuum pressure.Described method also seldom relies on the time length of time opening and brake booster vacuum pressure test.Time opening can be connected when initial brake servo unit and brake-pipe pressure are measured.Between time opening and last brake servo unit and brake-pipe pressure are tested, time length and time total amount are connected.At least because these reasons are carried out described method to determine brake booster vacuum pressure attenuation speed and/or leakage size accurately in the vehicle operating process.In addition, because can carry out said method when vehicle operating and tail-off, described method need control module 26 still not keep connecting behind combustion cutoff with the test related with it.Described method and vacuum test can be carried out when vehicle operating repeatedly, and do not need to carry out when vehicle cuts out.Saved battery power like this.
The foregoing description provides a kind of braking booster system and direct brake booster leak detection system based on leakage size of emission compliance.Starting or initial brake booster vacuum reduce to minimum not influence the output result of leak detection system.Leakage attenuation and various leakage size can be detected in a short period of time accurately.Detect accurately and help to guarantee suitable fuel efficiency.
The professional and technical personnel can understand from above-mentioned explanation now, and extensive content disclosed by the invention can utilize various forms to realize.So, though the present invention is illustrated in conjunction with its instantiation, true scope of the present invention should not be limited to this, because for the professional and technical personnel, studying accompanying drawing, specification sheets and following claim postscript, other modification is just apparent.
